Week 2 Rankings
At the quarterback position Peyton Manning has solidified himself as a top three option the rest of the way following his record tying performance on Thursday Night Football. His plethora of weapons is the envy of every other QB in the league and Peyton was not even at his best last week, as scary as that sounds.
Terrelle Pryor showed he has legitimate QB1 upside and has worked himself into the bye week filler conversation in single QB leagues while making the case to be a solid QB2 option the rest of the way.
Chad Henne is slated to get the start for the Jaguars this week and finds himself ranked higher than Gabbert would probably ever find himself this season. I guess it doesn’t hurt that the Jags week two opponent is the lowly Raiders.
At the wide receiver position Andre Johnson proved he will not be slowing down even with DeAndre Hopkins on the team while Victor Cruz reminded us how explosive a slot receiver he can be in three wide sets.
Anquan Boldin proved just about all of the fantasy experts wrong in his first week while Wes Welker laughed at the so-called experts just days earlier.
LeSean McCoy got a games worth of carries in one half in Chip Kelly’s offense while Adrian Peterson proved to be…well, not human.
Eddie Lacy found the end zone versus a tough 49ers run defense while fellow rookies Giovanni Bernard and Montee Ball had minuscule roles in week one.
Shane Vereen looked like he had seized the Patriots starting running back job from Stevan Ridley until it was announced that he had played the majority of the Pats week one win with a broken wrist. Ridley will get another shot.
Julius Thomas is a top ten option the rest of the way while Jared Cook finally lived up to the immense hype the fantasy community has been heaping on him for years.
Owen Daniels had a monster Monday night while Zach Sudfeld lost many owners their matchups single handedly.
Without further adieu here are our live and constantly updated rankings for week two:
